Key Takeaway
Thailand Whiteleg Shrimp Spot prices (70 count) decreased from US$ 7.97/kg in October 2024 to US$ 7.00/kg in September 2026, a decline of 12.2%. Prices rose to a peak of US$ 8.40/kg in November 2024 before easing through the remainder of the period, with a particularly sharp fall during May–June 2026. The trend indicates a moderate downward movement in the quoted benchmark.
- Thailand whiteleg shrimp prices are influenced by farm stocking levels, harvest volumes, water quality, disease incidence, feed costs, and aquaculture productivity. Seasonal production cycles and changes in the size distribution of harvested shrimp affect the availability of the specified 70-count-per-kilogram grade.
- Export demand from the United States, China, Japan, and other major seafood markets influences processor procurement and farm-gate buying activity. Competition from Ecuador, India, Vietnam, and Indonesia affects the competitiveness of Thai shrimp. Trade tariffs, import regulations, processing costs, cold-chain logistics, and international seafood inventories can also contribute to price fluctuations.
